There comes a point when writing about fashion that we find some stuff is just a little too ridiculous to take seriously, take Prada’s $1,000 plain white tank top, for example. ⁠ That being said, every so often something lands on our desk that’s just too stupid to let lie, the latest of which coming from, of course, @balenciaga, who have dropped a pair of black bow shoelace earrings, setting you back a total of US$261.⁠ ⁠ Regardless of whether MATCHESFASHION describes them as an example of “Demna’s ability to incorporate everyday objects into the house’s jewelry collections,” they simply are shoelaces with earrings glued to them.⁠ ⁠ Only last week the label launched its infamous "Trash Pouch" for US$1,790 in three colors, and who can forget the US$1,850 Paris Sneaker that looked like a shoe Tutankhamun would’ve worn.⁠ ⁠ While a pair of shoelace earrings might not be Balenciaga’s wildest release to-date – we’ll save that one for its X-Pander Sneakers – it’s undoubtedly one of its most overpriced, sharing the accolade with an $88 coffee cup and a $650 travel pillow.⁠ ⁠ Anyway you can buy them on MATCHESFASHION's site or literally just make some of your own.⁠ ⁠ ✍️: @tayler_willson ⁠ 📷️: MATCHESFASHION
